We are all accustomed to paying tribute to the valuable work of our NHS staff but our care and support workers do not always get the public recognition they so rightly deserve.
There has never been a time when our frontline workforce has demonstrated such extraordinary dedication, compassion and selflessness, coming together in the face of unparalleled adversity.
Be it in a care home or community care setting, we are seeing incredible individuals and teams going above and beyond to ensure old and vulnerable people in our society still receive care and support during the coronavirus COVID-19 crisis.
Our unsung heroes are playing a crucial role in supporting the Department of Health and Social Care with containment and management of the virus for old and vulnerable people.
That is why we want to give the sector, and more importantly the wider public, the opportunity to say thank you to social care and support.
We want to provide a platform and equip people who work in care and support, including care workers, personal assistants, nurses and support workers, their service users, families and the wider public to say thank you to social care.
Please help us spread the word!
We have created a range of free images for social media, posters for anyone associated with the sector.
These can also be personalised with staff photos and/or company logo.
These downloaded from the dedicated Care Talk web page:
